Poor greens, slow pace of play
Greens are in really bad shape. Sad for how much money they make for being busy these days they can't get the greens fixed. Fairways in good shape but sucks to play a round when the greens are bad.
Pace was also horrible, marshal just drives around and does nothing.
solid Austin muni
First time at Mo Williams. About 6600 yds from the Blue tees (71.9/128). Only a couple of holes had water, but some of the tee shots were a bit tight or needed a big carry. Was pretty slow, but expected for a weekend. Followed a group playing the tips who should not have been. No marshals on the course, no water, and didn't see a drink cart until #16. Bottleneck at #3 which is a long and challenging par 3 over water. Tee boxes and greens all around need some attention. Overall, enjoyed the round and will go back soon.
Wonderful Time
Fairways and rough are in great conditions. Greens were in fair condition though a small number of weeds. Pros and cart vendors were nice and informative. Only negative would be that you can't share golf bags. One couple (guy and girl) were teeing off to start a walking round when told they are required to rent a second bag to play. Think it was around $6. Not entirely sure why but they both nailed it down the middle of the fairway. Gotta make those extra bucks where you can.
bucket list
It has been almost 40 yr since I played Morris Williams and a lot had changed.
The course layout is basically the same. The vegetation has changed dramatically but over all still a great course.
I was a bit unhappy with the greens though. They hadn't smoothed out yet from the Aeration and were still very ruff..
Still looking forward to my next round here.
Greens
Absolutely garage greens!! I would rather go play Hancock golf course all day for a fraction of the price!
Love Austin’s Munies
This was my second time playing here and the course was a lot of fun! The greens had been sanded so they were a bit rough condition wise.
I enjoyed playing here, but I have to say one of the two woman in the pro shop was about as welcoming as a f@rt in a spacesuit. She wanted to penalize me for using GolfNow to buy my round and charge me the full course price for a re-play fee at the end of the day when no more tee times were being sold. She told me I have to keep a receipt next time (when I wasn’t given one).. there are other jobs, if you’re THAT unhappy… leave, mam, otherwise just try being be a kind person.
Thankfully the other woman was kind enough to tell her to just let me pay the $12 repay fee. Thank you!
Not ideal greens conditions
The greens aren’t in great shape and the pin placements don’t make a lot of sense given the conditions.
Don’t go by
Nice course in good condition. Just don’t gauge your putting of the practice green. I rolled a few prior to the round and practice green was like putting on a pool table. The course greens are much slower. Played with a good group of guys and the pace was good for a Friday afternoon.
Horrible pace of play
The clubhouse sent groups out with no intention resulting in over 4 hours for only 15 holes. Multiple groups of walkers with older players and and just a horrible golfing experience. This course was actually very nice, I just wish I could have played it all. Because of this pace of play issue, with no Marshalls to stop 4somes from hitting 8 balls off the tee, I won’t ever be coming back here again.
Spend more money for a better experience.
Solid Muny!
Good old muny course. Plenty of challenge for the average golfer. Staff is laid back and friendly. Read reviews about bad greens, but they were fine. I’ll be back!
Great course
Loved the layout and the way this course plays. A couple greens need work and i believe a sand trap had no sand but other than that great place to play. Would pick this over other muny courses
Good Course
Course in good conditions, considering coming out of the winter. Some greens were a little rough but it is understandable. Should be in great shape in two weeks, will come back again then! Staff was great and the pace was good. Will be back!
